Use the AJA Dante AV 12G-SDI/HDMI 4K Transmitter to deliver Dante AV Ultra signals up to UHD 4K via your Ethernet network. In combination with the separately available receiver, the transmitter can operate in your conference room, lecture hall, or event space thanks to its modular system design. Connect the unit to your Dante AV network using the primary Ethernet port. The transmitter features one 12G-SDI input and one HDMI 2.0 input capable of supporting signals up to 4K60. 8-channel, 48 kHz embedded PCM audio from those sources can be distributed across the network via TCP/IP protocols.

The transmitter is compatible with Dante Controller software, which allows you to route the video, audio, KVM, VISCA, and IR connections via your network to the destination of your choice. Two USB-A ports connect peripheral devices, while a mini-USB port inputs your Windows or macOS computer. IR communication is facilitated using the 3.5mm input and output ports and the included emitter and receiver units. The transmitter supports HDCP 2.2 and has a DB-9 port for RS-422 serial control. Five LED indicators on the front panel of the unit display power, codec, system, sync, and HDCP status.

Dante AV Ultra Ecosystem

Dante AV is a 1 GigE networking solution that delivers up to UHD 4K60 video at a 0.5 frame latency over an IP connection. It features a JPEG 2000 codec for high-quality visuals with network efficiency. The codec supports lossy and lossless coding and has up to 16384 components. Easily integrate Dante-enabled audio products into your setup for a complete AV-over-IP ecosystem.

Dante Controller Software

Use the Dante Controller software with your macOS or Windows computer to set up your video and audio signal routing between Dante devices. Control the video and audio connections and move them over in real time to an Ethernet network. Take the transmitter's embedded audio and configure it as a separate audio source channel on the network using the Dante Via. The separately available Dante Virtual Soundcard can emulate a physical PC or Mac soundcard via the Dante network.

Flexible Power Options

The primary Ethernet port supports PoE+ for reduced cable runs. Included with the transmitter unit is a power adapter capable of converting 100-240 VAC at 50/60 Hz to 12 VDC. A DIN 4-pin power input accepts the power adapter cable.

VESA Monitor Formats

The Dante AV transmitter supports various VESA formats from WUXGA to VGA to allow efficient monitoring of your networked connections. An RCA analog audio port outputs audio signals to your monitor.
